Yep.

Representative Republic. It’s how to stay away from Commies and Lefties and Softies.

Suck it.

This has been building since Bush/Gore.

They saw Reagan as a temporary stumbling block, and Bubba as a necessary evil to get control back in the Party's hands. But Gore was supposed to win. You finally be the President that put into place everything the progressive conspiracy had been working towards since the sixties. The final culmination of the The long march through the institutions .

But after eight years of Dubya, they were ready to try again. Hillary was desperate to be the President who finally put in place the progressive endgame, but it turned out to be Obama well for the chance.

And it turned out to be a disaster. Turns out that implementing the progressive agenda is enormously unpopular. Expert that the progressives simply can't admit that to themselves. They are, after all, the vanguards of history.

So their response is to push even harder for programs that the majority fervently does not want, and to blame their failure on a vast conspiracy.

They are chasing a dream that simply can't happen, and they're getting tired of waiting.

“This” has been building for far too long.

I seriously hope one of them starts it.

Then I’ll just watch all the other idiots yelling at him.

If one of us starts it, I’m going to be disappointed.

But you do you.

Sounds like this author wants one-party rule.

Let’s call these “proposals” what they are: Treason. They want to replace Americans with an imported population they can control and then replace the system of checks and balances with an apparachik dictatorship.

Pod People?

Easily controlled immigrants from very restrictive countries?

Wow.

We’d best get a wall up then ASAP.

David Faris:

“David Faris is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Roosevelt University, where he teaches Egyptian and Middle Eastern Politics.”

Well, that explains quite a lot.

So....a winning strategy is more Sour Grapes and attacking the Constitution more directly?

The author and political scientist offers a traditionally timid party some bold ideas.

I did not have to read much past this amazing and grossly incorrect assertion!

The timid party are the Republicans! Just consider how the Republicans timidly accepted Justice Ginsberg when she was nominated for the Supreme Court.

Then consider how the Republicans went limp when Bork was viciously and falsely attacked. And Justice Clarence Thomas!

Look how the Dems are gearing up to attack (fill in the blank) the next Supreme Court nominee by President Donald Trump.

They rigged the DemocRAT nomination process.
Cheated in the debates w Trump by getting questions in advance.
Used false pretenses to spy on the Trump campaign before the election.
Actively trying to overthrow a duly elected President with criminal investigations based on fake dossiers purchased by the DemocRAT party.
Bern working to illegally alter the demographics of the U.S. because real Americans won’t vote for them.

This is what they consider being passive nice guys.

I hear you.......... the entire article is written with a completely backwards point of view.

With all these numerous episodes of violence toward Republicans all over the place ..... may I note everyone seems to FORGET that curious news event of a couple of years ago.

****

"Train Carrying GOP Lawmakers Hits Garbage Truck In Virginia" ---- somehow a garbage truck was left on the tracks for that train to hit it. Hmmmm?

Not much investigation on that one.

Nailed it!

They stole the nomination from Bernie who was winning state after state. The whole Super Delegate thing had it rigged before the first vote was cast!

They outdid Nixon (who hired outsiders / misfits) by getting secret warrants from a secret court to use the power of our own government to spy on political opponents.

We in the middle of a coup attempt to take Trump out - one that’s lasted since the election and has continued well into his administration.

Yet Trump keeps on winning!
